Treasurer, Board of Directors
About the role
COATA is seeking a new Treasurer to join our nonprofit's Board of Directors for a two-year volunteer term. Meetings are held 10 months per year. This is a fiduciary role, and candidates will be vetted, including professional references who can speak to your ethics.
Responsibilities
- Manage our books and present financial reports to the Board (bookkeeping is basic — low transaction volume, easy to learn).
- Help plan and oversee our annual budget.
- Prepare our annual financial reporting to AATA (American Art Therapy Association).
- Work closely with our Board President.
Benefits
- Access to all COATA member perks, including free case consultations, free directory listing, and discounts on events and conferences.
Qualifications
You don't need to be an Art Therapist, and you don't need to live in Colorado. A desirable background includes experience in mental health, finance, or on nonprofit boards — but full training is provided either way.
Testimonial
“Serving as COATA's Treasurer has been one of the most rewarding volunteer roles I've had. I got to see firsthand how our budget decisions support art therapists across Colorado, and the board is a genuinely great group to work with.” — Rachel Duncan, MA, ATR-P®, CFT™, outgoing Treasurer
